How much longer is traditional storage tech like SSDs and HDDs going to last? 50 years? what's comes after?

>SSD
>traditional storage

wtf is 'untraditional storage' then?

dna storage.

pcie flash storage (SSD on pcie) will take over in the next few years. it's already starting and has taken over most of the mobile shit. it'll be the norm in 10 years for desktops and it'll be the norm for servers & storage probably in your 50 year guess.

>He doesn't know about vapour-slide drives

Well you can use cassette tapes for audio, shit like that, however the nigger was very clearly distinguishing current tech vs. prospective tech. The purpose of the "traditional" adjective here was to distinguish current norms in this context, to ask about conceivable future ones.

Why would OP even use the word traditional, surely it'd be a lot simpler to understand if he just delete that word from the post. Although it doesn't really matter, they don't call it the asper/g/er's board for nothing.

thank you kind sir. traditional == currently available to consumers.

what are we gonna do with op's pic related a few decades from now, aside from storing VR pr0n?

you can include CDs, DVDs, BluRay, tape, etc. in "traditional" if it makes you feel better ;)

even fucking crazier density LTOs

Idk how long for SSDs, but i cant wait until HDDs are no longer manufactured

I'd say at most 31 years.

But they aren't going to supersede HDD's or SSD's for mass storage. They stink

Consider this. HDD technology has been around for circa 65 years.

Everything is going really well. Things have stagnated because it doesn't get much better than this.

by 2049 well probably be a shithole country

My dad fell for that meme

3/4 of the US population would be Pajeets because they can't stop reproducing.

I guess storing everything to remote servers comes next. Just use something like pxe to boot off of a remote server and access the storage you've subscribed to.
And then, after that, if you have a Bluetooth enabled cerebral implant, you can store everything directly to your brain.
Everyone will get consistently more retarded as they delete education to make room for porn and high-res selfies.

I still got mine + zip disks

not for anything your computer needs to access regularly lmao
fucking retard

Literally the best kino of the century.

I assume you're not referring to the cranial implants.

I tell you what it's never going to be "stupid looking baubles" unless they are just a component in something larger.

It's like whipping a single drive platter out of your pocket and slotting it into your computer, why do it that way just fucking enclose it for christs sake.

M8, my fucking acorn archimedes had a ramdrive and that was from 91

Cloud computing is already a thing you idiot. It will soon overtake the usage of SSDs/HDDs.

The BIOS chip will connect to AWS instance or shit like that?

that's the dumbest thing i've heard someone say on Sup Forums today, and that says something.

how do you think those datacenters store data? with magic?

Maybe he's talking about the client, it will not have a HDD/SSD.

>newfags in charge of dealing with ancient bait

technically you could run everything from RAM, but you would still need to somehow boot at least a network stack.

ok

>still need to somehow boot at least a network stack
Maybe in some chip on the motherboard like BIOS?

And milk comes from supermarket. Fuck cows, you idiots?

What do you think the BIOS is stored on, user? Magical cloud pixies?

No, but I mean we won't have another SSD/HDD

In the cloud

>50 years? what comes after?

aparently what comes after is a bunch of devices that the megacorp conglmoarates make it /fa/ to put crap on your clothing and than clothing? why on clothing when you can put it on your skin!!, oooo, wow, that is better than a desktop, better than a tablet, and better than phones, those smart phones that are for grandpas.

it goes strait from metallic storage to plugging your brain into the BORG, but don't worry its wireless and you will have no choice ;^)

It's a stupid question. Who cares what comes after because it will be performing the same role that current SSDs do, only it will be faster and more reliable.

Every computer will always need local storage.

>Cloud computing is already a thing you idiot.
Get on with the times, grandpa. Edge computing is the new hotness.
